EDUARDO CHILLIDA (San Sebastian, 1924-2002). Eduardo Chillida is undoubtedly one of the most important Spanish artists and one of the sculptors who most marked the national artistic school. During his long and fruitful career, he worked and experimented with multiple materials, creating sculptural forms recognizable at first sight. In 1943 he studied architecture, which he abandoned three years later to draw at the Circulo de Bellas Artes in Madrid. At this time he made his first pieces of sculpture. He lived for a few years in France, first in Paris and later in Villaines-sus-bois in the South. In 1951 he returned to the Basque Country for good. He worked the sculpture in small and large format with almost all materials: wood, plaster, terracotta, porcelain, alabaster, granite, concrete, steel, iron, bronze, etc. However, it would be unfair to limit Chillida's artistic activity solely to sculpture, given that his graphic work occupies a no less important place in his creative biography and always goes hand in hand with his sculptural work. Drawing was the artist's first “praxis”, but it was much later, in the mid-50s, when he began to be interested in engraving. Although his preferred technique was etching, Chillida also worked with xylography, lithography, aquatint, drypoint and even serigraphy, practically always playing only with two colors: black and white.

He was a Spanish artist. He began his career in 1943, studying architecture at the University of Madrid, but in 1947 he took up drawing and sculpture. In 1948 he moved to Paris, then the world capital of art. Although he dropped out of college, his work betrays his architectural training, revealing an underlying sense of structural organization as well as material discipline, planning spatial relationships, and scaling elements. For years, the artist used materials that were the basis for his research on conceptual and metaphysical issues. Chillida's early efforts in stone and plaster oscillated between humans and the natural world. His return to the Spanish Basque country in 1951 initiated a change of vision, focusing more on the metamorphosis of space and the definition of spatial volume through form. Chillida soon abandoned the plaster he had used in his Paris works in favor of iron, then wood and steel. These materials represent Basque traditions in industry, architecture and agriculture, and recall the landscape and black light of the region. Chillida began using alabaster for its illuminated but veiled appearance, he used it in the sculpture How Deep is the Air (1996). Despite his use of a variety of media, Chillida's intentions for simplicity and balance never allowed the material to take on a form alien to its nature. He was consistently guided by the quality of space, density and rhythm. Major retrospectives of Chillida's graphic and sculptural works have been exhibited by the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (1966), the Carnegie Institute, Pittsburgh (1979), the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. (1979), the Guggenheim Museum (1980), the Palacio de Miramar, San Sebastián (1992), and Museo nacional centro de arte Reina Sofía, Madrid (1999). Chillida's monumental sculptures designed for urban and more remote spaces are permanently installed internationally and constitute a central aspect of his artistic production. Chillida has received numerous awards, including the Grand International Sculpture Prize at the Venice Biennale (1958), the Kandinsky Prize (1960), the Carnegie Prize for Sculpture (1964), the Andrew Mellon...
